Sirio Antenne Quansheng UV-k5-plus User Manual

Quansheng UV-K5 - IJV Firmware
Manual
The Quansheng UV-K5, K5(8), K6 and k5-plus radios have the option of being
upgraded with unocial rmware.
Therefore, I disclaim all liability for transmitting outside the bands allowed by
the manufacturer. What you do with your radio is at your own risk.
These updates are substantial to the point that there was a need to rewrite the
manual, as the menu and functions are dierent.
Please note that the use of this radio requires an HAM radio licence.
